New appointments for Altium
Altium has appointed Martin Harris, pictured, as vice president, Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA).
Harris succeeds Frank Hoschar who has moved to Altium's headquarters in Sydney to become director of marketing for Altium worldwide.
Two other moves have seen Jean-Paul Seuren appointed as licence compliance manager, EMEA and Jacqueline Künzel as Altium's new associate director – People and Performance, EMEA.
André Pravaz, executive vice president, Worldwide Field Operations, said: "These new additions to the EMEA management team will lead the drive to take this new concept to electronics designers in the region. Martin will drive business growth overall. Jean-Paul will assist him in working on the opportunity we have, in Russia in particular, in converting pirated software to the latest version of Altium Designer.
"We've had considerable success in China in convincing designers that they have much more to gain by being up to date with paid for software, rather than sticking with unlicensed software that might be up to 10 years old. It will be interesting to compare the Russian experience with China's. And Jacqueline will continue to drive our recruitment and support our partners around the region."
